    I think high case numbers are more of a problem in Lifford-Strabane which crosses border between Donegal and Tyrone rather than Ballybofey-Stranorlar which is entirely in Donegal.

    Strabane is almost 10 times the size of Lifford so I have no doubt that there is a lot of traffic from the Donegal side over into Strabane on a daily basis. Proportionately case figures in the north have been higher than the the Republic in the last fortnight yet I've heard little talk advising caution in crossing the border.

    I read this. A member of the group said that they followed the guidelines and maintained social distancing. It was also said that other years they would travel together but this year they didn't.

    20 people from that group tested positive for the virus. Maybe some of them were carriers of the virus before arriving to the golf tournament. This is something I would love to figure out. How dis such a large number in the group test positive for the virus if they followed the guidelines and maintained social distancing. I know the guidelines are not there to prevent infection, they are there to minimise infection. It's something I would love to figure out:

    What led to such a large number becoming infected?
    Were they all asymptomatic?

    Would it be cross contamination from the restaurant or eating area and the serving of plates and food and the clearing away for tables?
    Was it something more to do with the toilets? I remember there was something in the news before about toilets and flushing and apartment complexes etc. Every time I'm out in public and I use a toilet in public like in my local hotel, I always put down the toilet lid.


    The woman's death was not covid related it said. The desth was another reason, but she died with covid19. This is something that scares me. I remember the nursing home from New York where residents went from symptoms to death within a matter of hours. Did the woman follow a similar path before she died?

    I know you don't know these questions but these are questions to ponder and figure out more about the virus.

    Interesting interview on news talk after 6 talking about the amount of cancer clinical trials stopped after the Covid outbreak that will result in more deaths from cancer than would otherwise have happened. Are they not going to be counted by RTÉ and George Lee?

    I would love to know more about these ICU admissions. Are they new covid cases or would they be asymptomatic and not tested for covid until hospital admissions or would it be older infections?

    What's going in with the HSE numbers. Dublin south east is continuously being called out as the second highest per 100k incidence in Dublin at 150 odd. However nothing in that table puts Dublin southeast at anywhere near that, more like 60 odd. What am I missing?

    Glynn is by far the better speaker than MM. No wonder MM keeps handing the questions to him

    micks a pity whats he doing with his hands when he speaks reminds me of ted with the dust on the window looking like a german

    Its an example of the poor undisciplned behaviour. There was no compelling need for this Dublin group to get together for golf and craic. And this behaviour is being replicated by loads.
    Getting outside to play golf is fine (btw I don't play golf). It's outdoors, easy to distance, a good way to meet your friends and yes, have some craic.

    The problem is generally when the group then moves indoors somewhere (or travel together). I don't know the story of that group, but I'd be pretty sure 20 people didn't catch it on the golf course. Cut that indoor bit out and it's low risk overall, and in general I'd see it as a good thing to do.

    We can't simply hide away for the next year.

    Since end March I refuse to watch the news, press conferences etc.

    Prefer to get the zeitgeist from fora like here and elsewhere. That's where the truth lies, although I do accept that stats do matter. But some journalists are so depressing and negative.

    Just need the facts. The cases are rising in Dublin, it is growing every day and we need to take measures like the following for a short period of time. Fine. But all the hype around it is just making many roll their eyes and get on with it within the rules.

    Exactly a 1000 children between the age of 5-14 with confirmed infections as of today.

    That was 499 a month ago.

    Maybe some of those healthy, young people would get sent to icu regardless of covid? Wait till someone says that unironically

  • Registered Users Posts: 5,501 ✭✭✭bb1234567


    Wow France must have serious testing capacity..16k positives today, must have tested several hundred thousand people. Deaths remaining relatively stable for now considering the number of cases but 100 ICU admissions in the last 24 hours is worrying.

    When the ICU is jammers with Covid young people who would have survived their injuries/illness with ICU care now die. The uk is reporting deaths of new mothers due to a lack of icu capacity

    If true then we know where the spike is coming from. As so many children are asymptomatic that would be tip of the iceberg. We will know soon enough as that would mean no lockdowns will control the spread.

    Is this the figure for all of Ireland?

    So there were 499 infection in children since the pandemic started. Now it's jumped up by the same number in one month.

    He's actually not "aggressive" enough for politics.

    Like fúck he isn't.

    MM is the Keyser Soze of Irish politics, what did hold 4/5 ministries during the FF "We all partied" era?

    He convinced everyone he had nothing to do with it and now he is leader of the country.

    Write that snake off at your peril.

    It is definitely one thing that needs to be dealt with asap. I'm all for being safe and trying to control the virus but we have to really up our healthcare system in general. It also really makes me angry to think about people who were out marching cause they have to wear a mask when real issues (covid and cancer) are way more pressing but as, of this moment, neither are affecting them who cares.

    Anyone decent is staying indoors 24/7 and twitching the curtain like good COVID fearing Christians.

    This childish portrayal of anybody who is following the recommended precautions as a curtain twitcher is wearing thin.


  • Registered Users Posts: 15,953 ✭✭✭✭Spanish Eyes


    To my mind, closing the pubs is a smoke screen for the infection rate in schools. That is where the cases are coming from, but you will not hear anything about that.

    God love the teachers. They are the brave ones.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,319 ✭✭✭✭hotmail.com
